Dear DCC Alumni Community,
Please see information below on Inclusive Pathways to Success, a new trade school created specifically for young adults (ages 21-36) with disabilities based in Arlington. This is a great opportunity for alumni seeking daytime activities.
Inclusive Pathways to Success (IPS) is currently accepting applications for November and December workshops, during which students will build woodworking products that they can gift or sell during the workshops. During the workshops, an IPS woodworking instructor and behavioral assistant teach students about safety, tool usage as well as drawing, planning and creating woodworking projects. The individual student and group projects will vary each month so students are encouraged to attend each month if they are interested.
No prior woodworking experience is required, but chosen applicants will be asked to use basic tools such as a drill and screwdriver during a 30-minute interview with an IPS woodworking instructor to gather information about their fine-motor/gross-motor abilities.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis. The cost for attending a 4-week workshop is $1,680 (total for 8 classes each month). In December, IPS will offer a 3-week workshop that costs $1,260 (total for 6 classes that month).
Here is a link to the webpage about the workshops, which also contains this application link.
